All ballet classes are designed to endow the human body with all of the qualities essential to dance: balance, poise, strength and flexibility. Training in ballet is necessary to improve development in all dance forms. French terminology, alignment, control and coordination are stressed throughout every level offered.

Cecchetti 1 through Cecchetti 5 classes offer the student a firm foundation in classical ballet technique, language and theory as well as offer opportunity for certification by the Cecchetti Council of America. The Cecchetti syllabus develops strong classical lines, solid anatomical placement, as well as beautiful jumps, leaps and beats. The Cecchetti Method of Ballet is endorsed because of its careful regard for the laws of anatomy, its teaching of movement theory and the foundation it can provide for all styles of dance. Once the Graded syllabus has been accomplished, those students wishing to be certified (with the instructor’s approval) may take the examination. Chicago area exams are held in early winter and spring. Examination is entirely optional and will incur added fees. Examination and certification is not mandatory for advancement in Cecchetti classes.

Teams will consist of players from both communities. PROGRAM FORMAT Instructional Basketball is centered on the concept of learning fundamentals of the game and achieving a feeling of success from participation. Therefore, the Basketball season will consist of practice sessions and instructional games dependant upon the number of teams. To better teach the basic fundamentals, the first 2 sessions will be strictly instructional practices concentrating on the fundamental skills of dribbling, passing, shooting and basic concepts of offense and defense taught (Third through eighth will be introduced to boxing out for rebounds, playing man to and defense and setting up a screen and pick offense) by Recreation Department Staff. After the pre-season sessions, all players will be evaluated for team assignments. On the 3-4th session, participants will receive their team assignments, their uniform T-shirt and a schedule of instructional games/ practices for the remainder of the season.

GOALS OF YOUTH BASKETBALL The purpose of Lake Forest Recreation Department’s Youth Basketball Program is to provide young people with a safe and enjoyable athletic experience with emphasis on sportsmanship and fair play.

We are the generation to provide stewardship and preserve its future. Your help is needed to ensure that its magnificent vistas and natural areas are preserved.

Join us as we keep Forest Park forever!

Award Winning June 14, 2015 was officially proclaimed “Forest Park Day” by Lake Forest Mayor Don Schoenheider as the park reopened after many months of rehabilitation and enhancements. The Forest Park Project Board in a public/private FOREST PARK partnership with the City has raised funds and overseen the implementation of the master plan for the park which has already been recognized by: • The Lake County Stormwater Management Commission - “2014 Development of the Year” • Lake Forest Preservation Foundation - 2016 award for the Rehabilitation of Forest Park • Garden Club of America recognized the Forest Park Board with a Civic Improvement Award for leadership and guidance of the Forest Park Project, environmental responsibility and respect for the landscape overlooking Lake Michigan

Forever Giving Thanks to the efforts of many volunteers, professionals and donors, the successful Forest Park preservation is providing the community with: • Spectacular and expansive views of the once hidden lakefront • Woodland boardwalk and meandering walkways along the lakefront and through out the park • Preserved, enhanced and protected woodland, flatwood wetlands, bluff and ravine ecosystems • New amenities including benches, bike racks, water fountains, and pathway lighting • Environmentally sustainable landscaping and storm water storage and filtration systems with bioswales and a vernal pond beneficial to Lake Michigan as well as the surrounding natural areas You can be a part of its Success... Take your place in Lake Forest’s history as a donor preserving Forest Park for future generations. The Master Plan to rehabilitate the park is complete thanks to almost $4M raised within our community. The next few years are critical to ensure the spectacular vistas, plantings, and natural areas including woodlands, ravines and bluffs are maintained. The final goal of raising $300,000 to endow the park is within our grasp and you can make the difference.

Your gift of $1,000 or more will be listed permanently on the park’s donor board.
